Summer Sandwich Series: Hummus and Veggie

by j3nn on August 6, 2011

Hello there! If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to the RSS feed for updates on this topic.

Welcome to my new summer sandwich series (that will probably last long beyond summertime, hehe)!!

I’ve mentioned once or twice how I can’t get enough veggie and hummus sandwiches this summer and I’m happy to say that it wasn’t a short-lived phase. I’m still diggin’ the combo and making excellent use of the homemade hummus I made a few weeks ago.

Hummus and Veggie Sandwich
(vegan)

Poppy seed roll drizzled with red wine vinegar + extra virgin olive oil
About 1/3 cup homemade hummus
2 dill pickle sandwich stackers
Handful of fresh baby spinach
Plum tomato sprinkled with Himalayan pink salt and black pepper

Totally amazing combo. I highly recommend the red wine vinegar + EVOO. It lends great flavor to the whole sandwich. Yum.

I have a hair appointment tomorrow and it’s 2:12AM, I should be sleeping! Such a rebel. Punk

What’s kickin’ in your world this weekend?

Those look so yummy Jenn – I love adding spinach to things instead of lettuce I have yet to try hummus on a sammy – must.try.

What an ingeniuous idea the vinegar and EVOO is. Sounds delicious, it’s very unique, how did you come up with that combo?

Must stem from Italian sandwiches and crusty Italian bread my father used to buy from the bakery and douse with vinegar. It’s so good.

Why am I not eating more hummus? I love the stuff, just forget about it! I’m going to steal your red wine vinegar/evoo combo, that sounds so good!

This looks delicious. I’ve been eating way more hummus lately that I did before. It’s sooo good. Hope you enjoyed the hair appointment and you are feeling “sassy” with the cut! Have a good Sunday Jenn.

Mmmm – that looks like the absolute PERFECT sandwich. You just made me really excited to have a sandwich for lunch tomorrow!

when i think about it, i always put tomato and spinach in my sandwiches when i use hummus as a spread- but i think its just because the combination goes so well together! mmm and having a bagel sandwich makes it so much better!
